Replacement Landing Gear Recommendation for Atwood Set on 2016 Flying Cloud Airstream

Updated 07/28/2022 | Published 07/27/2022

Question:

Hello, I own a 2016 Flying Cloud Airstream trailer. The hitch system on the front will not move up and down to hitch on and off truck. The manual key to raise and lower manually, which is below the Atwood motor on the front of the unit, does not work as well to raise and lower the hitch. Can you provide a replacement? I can send pictures to help explain if need be. ATWOOD Mobile MPD 71119 12VDC PC-44F-1001 E186696 I/P 200W AOM Thank You,

Sounds like your Atwood powered landing gear has seen better days and since Atwood no longer makes those jack systems it would be time to replace the entire kit like with the Lippert Landing Gear part # LC712689 which is a similar powered setup that will bolt right up to the brackets you have now. It is a powered setup that also comes with a manual override crank.
